I should mention that he had been preceded a week before by Gloria Steinem. The stage was set.\u00a0 As soon as Mailer took the podium there was a smattering of shouts, signs flashed up, a protest began. He looked over the crowd and held his hands up, and said, \u201cOK, OK.\u00a0 I get it.\u201d Things quieted down a bit.\u00a0 Mailer continued,\u00a0 \u201cSo everyone who thinks I\u2019m an asshole, hiss.\u201d\u00a0 Of course the room was soon filled with violent hisses.\u00a0 When they stopped Mailer smirked and said, \u201cObedient little bitches.\u201d&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>My hope would be that Trump would come out for the opening monologue and ask everyone in the audience to join together and call him a racist, he could even hold up a cue card with the exact words, then he could hold up another cue card with the contact information for Deport Racism PAC and assure the audience that each one of them is eligible for\/guaranteed a $5,000.00 reward. I figure Studio 8H has about 200 seats in it so at $5k a head that could cost the Deport Racism PAC $1.2million. Its a safe bet they would renege on the offer giving Trump &amp; the GOP in general a lot of counter attack ammunition.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Whatever you can say about Trump &#8211; he&#8217;s not my guy &#8211; he&#8217;s one I could actually see bringing this kind of thing to the campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A longtime correspondent of this blog writes: I note that the MSM is promoting &#8220;Latino group offers $5K for calling Trump a racist on \u2018SNL\u2019&#8221; By a Norman Mailer I&#8217;m referring to a description of his contact with feminist protesters from this article in Salon: &#8220;For example, back when I was in college at Berkeley, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[187,4,13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-campaign-16","category-media","category-republicans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=56014"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56014\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":56015,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56014\/revisions\/56015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=56014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=56014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=56014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
